Chapter 12405 Cooperation
The man in the imperial robe in front of Ye Chen looked exactly like the Emperor Tianhuang. It seemed that when the Emperor Tianhuang Monument was built, the Emperor Tianhuang also poured endless efforts into it.
The spirit born from the Emperor's Monument is like the embodiment of his spirit and hard work.
"Outsiders, get out of the Emperor's blessed land!"
The man in the imperial robe was furious and immediately swung out his sword. A mighty imperial light gathered and he slashed towards Ye Chen with the sword.
Ye Chen saw that the other party used the "Emperor of Heaven's Demon-Suppressing Art" and swung his sword as if to wipe out all the demons. The sword force was very ferocious.
"The Heavenly Emperor's Demon Suppression Technique? I know that, too!"
Ye Chen stood still and did not retreat. He summoned the Heavenly Emperor Sword and activated the Heavenly Emperor Demon Suppression Technique. The majestic and mighty imperial power exploded on the sword. He also produced a ray of imperial light and sword energy, mixed with the power to destroy all gods and demons in the heavens. It was majestic and slashed towards the man in the imperial robe.
Boom!
The two imperial sword energies met in mid-air, and the collision produced a thunderous sound that shook the earth.
"Pfft!"
The man in the imperial robe vomited blood and his face turned pale.
The result of the collision of the two swords was that he was completely defeated by Ye Chen.
"The Heavenly Emperor's Demon Suppression Technique... How... How come you also know this technique?"
The man in the imperial robe was shocked. He didn't expect Ye Chen also had this trick, and he had profound attainments in it. He already had the supreme domineering power of the peerless emperor of heaven, and was even more powerful than him.
"Didn't you say you wanted to swallow me? Come on."
Ye Chen held the sword across his chest and said with a smile.
The man in the imperial robe trembled all over, looked at each other in silence, then turned into a ray of golden light and disappeared back into the deep pool.
"If you lose, acknowledge me as your master and I will not treat you unfairly."
Ye Chen looked at the deep pool, waved his hand, and a powerful force emanated from it.
The water in the deep pool rolled, and then a golden stone tablet that looked like it was made of gold rose up.
On the front of the stone tablet, there is a depiction of the Emperor Tianhuang, and on the back are four large characters "Eternal Life of the Emperor". The avenue is filled with golden light, the imperial aura is boiling, and his power is boundless.
It’s the Emperor’s Monument!
Hearing Ye Chen's words, a thought came from the Emperor's Monument:
"So you are the Lord of Reincarnation!"
"You are very strong, and your potential is enormous. You may even have a chance to surpass the gods in the future!"
"I acknowledge you as my master, and I will not suffer any loss."
"But, if I surrender to you, the Emperor will kill me and you too!"
Having just been defeated by Ye Chen's sword, the Emperor's Monument was convinced and it was okay to bow its head and acknowledge its master.
However, he is the magic weapon of the Emperor Tiandi. If he surrenders to Ye Chen, it would be tantamount to betraying the Emperor Tiandi.
If the Emperor of Heaven punishes them, both he and Ye Chen will die.
"No need to waste words. If the Emperor of Heaven is angry, I will bear the full responsibility."
"Come here and submit to me."
Ye Chen spoke decisively, not fearing the wrath of the Emperor. He waved his hand again, releasing a powerful force, and was about to snatch the Emperor's monument.
A sigh came from the Emperor Monument. He had just been defeated by Ye Chen's sword and his spirit was gone. He immediately wanted to accept his fate and submit to Ye Chen directly.
Swish!
But at this moment, suddenly sixteen pitch-black iron chains came out of the air and entangled the Emperor's Monument at an extremely fast speed.
The Emperor's Monument hummed, trying to break free from the chains, but to no avail.
Sixteen pitch-black iron chains, each of which was swirling with black air and carried a fierce sealing force, instantly locking the Emperor's Monument.
"who?"
Ye Chen's eyes turned cold, and he saw a masked man in black flash out from the woods near the waterfall. All he could see was his pair of eyes as sharp as knives.
"The destiny is unified, shoot!"
The man in black shouted softly and pulled with his palm through the air, controlling sixteen pitch-black iron chains to drag the Emperor's Monument over.
Ye Chen was shocked. The aura of this man in black was very obscure. It actually blended perfectly with the world of the Broken Star Cemetery, like water in water, and the whole person was like a ghost.
Even though he had seen the man in black with his own eyes, Ye Chen felt that the other party was still an illusion, as if he did not exist, and he could not catch any trace of his aura.
"Is he the descendant of the Emperor?"
Ye Chen could tell at a glance that the man in black must be a disciple of the Emperor Tianhuang and a person who had once been to the Emperor's blessed land. Therefore, his aura could completely blend with this world without revealing any sound.
If he hadn't taken the initiative, Ye Chen would have found it difficult to detect his presence.
Whoosh!
The man in black glanced at Ye Chen and did not respond to Ye Chen's words. After taking the Emperor's Monument, he pushed off the ground with his feet and immediately turned around and flew away.
"You dare to steal my things?"
Ye Chen snorted, and his body flashed. He used the Sun and Moon Changing Sky Technique, switched time and space, and moved instantly. He appeared in front of the man in black and blocked his way.
Judging from the aura of the man in black, his cultivation should be in the late Abyss Realm. Ye Chen can deal with a warrior of this level as long as he is not a being with terrifying talent.
The man in black saw Ye Chen's strange movements and how he teleported in front of him in an instant, and his eyes were filled with shock.
"Go away!"
The man in black shouted in a deep voice, and sixteen pitch-black iron chains, like devil tentacles, broke through the air and swept towards Ye Chen's body.
The iron chain swept through the air, making an extremely sharp whistling sound.
"Guardian of the divine power, obsidian energy!"
Ye Chen was not in a hurry. He immediately used Vishnu's guardian power and a layer of obsidian energy burst out from his body.
Vishnu's way of protection is the Ten Methods of Stone Heart, which includes different variations of stone heart such as amber, obsidian, diamond, titanium crystal, etc.
Among them, the Obsidian Stone Heart Method has an aura as deep as the abyss. Its defensive effect is not the strongest, but it is the most suitable for fighting against evil spirits.
Seeing that the iron chain in the black-clothed man's hand was surrounded by demonic energy and was quite strange, Ye Chen immediately used the obsidian protection method.
The black energy exploded on Ye Chen's body, and the black-clothed man swept the iron chain across, hitting Ye Chen hard with a clang, but it was like hitting a morning bell, making a crisp sound like gold and iron, but it could not hurt Ye Chen at all.
"The breath of divine power!"
The man in black was immediately shocked. Ye Chen's protection method was too advanced. It was a pillar god-level protection. Even Ye Chen's internal energy could not break his sixteen iron chains.
He was shocked to see that after Ye Chen used the divine power, he was still clear-headed and his eyes were pure, without any sign of being triggered by the catastrophe.
"That's it!"
After Ye Chen blocked the attack from the man in black, he immediately stretched out his hand, surrounded by the divine light of the Emperor of Heaven's Demon Suppression Technique, and grabbed the man in black with one hand.
After he rescued the Goddess of Beauty from the Black Abyss, he himself was blessed by the Goddess of Beauty. The holy light was on his body, pure and beautiful. Even if he used divine power, as long as the degree was not too deep or too frequent, he would not trigger the Burning Sky Catastrophe again.
This greatly reduced the restrictions on Ye Chen's fighting, making it easier for him to do so.
The next moment, Ye Chen grabbed the man in black like an eagle catching a chick.
The Emperor's Monument, which had just been taken away by the men in black, also fell out.
The battle was resolved in an instant, and Ye Chen was very satisfied. If it were in the past, he might have needed to expend his energy to deal with a warrior in the late stage of the Abyss Realm.
But now, because the divine power can be mobilized, fighting is much easier.
Ye Chen exerted force with his palm, intending to crush the man in black to death with one palm.
"Don't kill me, I'm Shen Lian's disciple!"
The man in black was terrified and spoke loudly, revealing his identity.
"Shen Lian's disciple?"
Ye Chen frowned. Shen Lian was the owner of the Divine Weapon Villa among the four major heavenly gates, and was one of the four supreme heavenly gates.
Is this man in black actually Shen Lian’s disciple?
Ye Chen pulled off his mask, revealing a stern face.
"What's your name? Did Shen Lian send you here? What does Shen Lian want to do?"
Ye Chen immediately became alert.
The man in black was silent for a moment, and fell into Ye Chen's control. With his life or death at stake, he could only speak truthfully:
"My name is Situ Yan, and I came here to be deified."
Ye Chen frowned and said, "Conferred God?"
Situ Yan said: "Well, the Emperor of Heaven has turned evil and fallen, I'm sure you know that."
"Lord Shen Lian intends to seal him away, then devour his soul and inherit his divine power."
Ye Chen's eyes flickered. He didn't expect Shen Lian to have such a plan. He paused and asked:
"You want to Confer Gods and Devour Souls, why didn't you do it before? Why did you have to wait until the Destruction Star Abyss belonged to my Jiu Cang Academy before sneaking in here?"
Situ Yan smiled bitterly and said, "There was no suitable container before. Lord Shen Lian calculated that the Emperor's Monument would be unearthed soon. This is the most suitable container that can be used to seal the soul of the Emperor. So he sent me to seize the Emperor's Monument and seal the Emperor."
Ye Chen asked again: "For such a big event as Conferred God, Shen Lian only sent you here?"
Situ Yan said helplessly: "There are indeed many strong people in Shenbing Villa, but if a warrior who is too powerful steps into this place, it will definitely trigger the secrets of heaven and alarm your academy."
"So, Lord Shen Lian only sent me here."
"I just never thought that you, Lord of Reincarnation, would be here too. I am unlucky."
After a pause, he added, "But maybe this is also my luck."
"Lord of Samsara, we can cooperate and seal the Emperor together."
"After the matter is completed, I will take away the soul of the Emperor of Heaven, and the Wall of Eternity will be yours. How about that?"
There was a gleam in Situ Yan's eyes, and he looked at Ye Chen with a hint of hope.
When he was captured by Ye Chen, he did not commit suicide immediately, but said so much and revealed all the truth, which actually meant that he wanted to cooperate.
He came here under the order of Shen Lian to seize the Emperor's Monument and seal the soul of the Emperor. This was an extremely difficult and dangerous task.
He was not sure about doing it alone, so he wanted to cooperate with Ye Chen.
"Sealing the soul of the Emperor of Heaven is really too fantastic!"
"Tell me, what means does Shen Lian have to be so arrogant that he even wants to seal the soul of the Emperor of Heaven."
Ye Chen still felt that it was impossible, it was too unbelievable.
Situ Yan only has the cultivation level of the late Abyss Realm. Although this level of cultivation is considered elite among the four major heavenly gates, he is just like an ant in front of the Pillar God.
It is really a fantasy for an ant to dream of becoming a god.
Situ Yan said: "If you want to deify yourself with brute force, that is naturally impossible. We are all unable to fight against the Pillar God."
"But, using the power of the law, it is possible to do it."
"When a fruit is ripe, it will fall from the tree. This is the law, the law of nature."
"As for the Pillar God, if he loses his physical body, his soul will fall into the abyss of the sea of destruction. This is also an eternal law."
"The Emperor used the Wall of Eternity to forcibly lock his soul and prevent it from falling."
"But if we can shake the Eternal Wall and make it lose its protective effect, then the soul of the Emperor will inevitably fall, just like a ripe fruit falling from a tree."
"When his soul is falling, it is the time when he is the weakest. At this time, if we offer sacrifices to the Emperor's Monument, we can collect the sealed soul!"
Situ Yan explained his plan to Ye Chen in a solemn voice. This was the plan laid out by Shen Lian.
If the fruit is hanging high on the tree, he cannot pick it and can only watch and sigh.
But if the fruit falls by itself, he who is standing under the tree can easily harvest it.
This is the utilization of natural laws. The soul of the Emperor is the fruit that is destined to fall!
Ye Chen's heart moved. This plan did sound feasible.
But then he shook his head again and said, "How easy is it to shake the Wall of Eternity?"
The Wall of Eternity is a creation of the Great Dao. Even if a strong man from the Heavenly Dao Realm comes, it will be difficult to shake it.
The purpose of Ye Chen's trip was to seize the Eternal Wall, but to be honest, he himself had no idea how to seize it. He wanted to take it step by step, and planned to see the Eternal Wall with his own eyes before figuring out how to seize it.
Situ Yan said: "Master Shen Lian gave me seventy-two Meteoric God Nails. As long as these seventy-two Meteoric God Nails are driven into the Wall of Eternity, the avenue protection effect of the Wall of Eternity can be temporarily suppressed."
“At that time, the soul of the Emperor will fall from the four walls.”
"As long as we seize the opportunity to activate the Emperor's Monument, we can subdue his soul in one fell swoop!"
As he spoke, Situ Yan took out a nail. The nail was strange, and there was a hint of deep aura from the abyss lingering on it.
When Ye Chen saw the aura of the abyss on the nails, he inexplicably felt his scalp tingling, as if his entire soul was about to be swallowed up.
This Meteorite Nail is not simple and seems to have some special effects.
Situ Yan put away the nails and asked:
"How about it, Lord of Samsara, do you want to cooperate?"
"I only want the soul of the Emperor of Heaven, and the Wall of Eternity can be yours."
Ye Chen said: "You have opened a charity in Shenbing Villa? You want to give me something as valuable as the Wall of Eternity?"
Situ Yan shook his head and said, "Master Shen Lian said that the four huge walls are too heavy, enough to crush the strong men in the Heavenly Dao Realm."
"Those who covet the eternal wall will surely be crushed to death by the four huge walls."
"Lord of Samsara, I know that you are a greedy person and will never let go of any opportunity."
"You can't resist the temptation of the Eternal Wall. Once you take the Eternal Wall, you might be crushed to death on the spot."
"Haha, your death is great news for our Shenbing Villa."
“Even if you don’t die, when Lord Shen Lian devours the soul of the Emperor Tianhuang and inherits the Emperor’s divine power, he will recall the giant wall.”
"Giving you the Wall of Eternity now is just a temporary solution. After all, I can't beat you."
Situ Yan was very frank and said everything that was on his mind without hiding anything.
After all, he had already fallen into Ye Chen's hands, and there was no point in hiding it.
Moreover, there are already huge conflicts between the Four Heavenly Gates and Ye Chen, so it’s no big deal if some of them are just laid out.
He was willing to cede the Wall of Eternity, but it was only a temporary measure. On the one hand, he could not defeat Ye Chen, and on the other hand, the Wall of Eternity was too heavy for him to take away.
If Ye Chen was crushed to death by the Wall of Eternity, it would naturally be a great thing for him.
Even if Ye Chen didn't die and really took control of the Wall of Eternity, Shen Lian would recall him in the future.
The purpose of his trip was just to collect the soul of the sealed Emperor Tianhuang.
Ye Chen smiled and said, "You are honest."
"That is to say, if we cooperate, the Emperor's Monument will eventually belong to you, and you will use it as a container to seal the Emperor. You will take the Emperor's soul away."
"As for the Eternal Wall, it belongs to me?"
Situ Yan said: "That's right."
Ye Chen's eyes turned, calculating the possible gains and losses. If he could get the Wall of Eternity, it would not be a loss for him to cede the Emperor's Monument.
"Okay, we can cooperate." Ye Chen said.
He decided to cooperate with Situ Yan as long as he could get the Wall of Eternity.
At that moment, he let go of Situ Yan and handed the Emperor's Stele to him.
"You come to collect the soul of the Emperor of Heaven, and I will hold the line to prevent him from counterattacking like a trapped beast." Ye Chen said.
Situ Yan was excited, holding the Emperor's tablet firmly, and said, "Good! The Lord of Samsara is indeed quick to speak!"
The voice of the spirit of the monument came from the Emperor's Monument: "You are crazy! You actually want to murder the Emperor! God cannot be insulted. Killing God is insulting God. Aren't you afraid of God's punishment?"
Hearing the words of the stele spirit, Ye Chen smiled without saying anything. He had already committed sins, so he was not afraid of adding another debt.
If the soul of the Emperor Tianhuang could be taken away, it would be good news for Jiucang Academy in the short term.
Without the rebellion of the Emperor of Heaven, the evil energy of the Destruction Star Abyss will dissipate and resource development will be smoother.
But from a long-term perspective, if the Emperor falls into Shen Lian's hands and Shen Lian inherits the divine power, it is hard to say whether it will be a blessing or a curse.
Situ Yan snorted and said, "The Emperor of Heaven has already turned evil. Sealing him is not an insult to God. On the contrary, it is acting on behalf of Heaven and maintaining order. How can there be a punishment from Heaven?"
He activated sixteen iron chains to lock the Emperor's Monument tightly, and the voice of the monument spirit was completely cut off.
Ye Chen said: "Let's go, we will discuss how to deal with the Emperor of Heaven here, it won't be long before the Emperor of Heaven will sense it."
"We must suppress him before the secret is revealed!"
Situ Yan said: "That's right, let's go!"
He put away the Emperor's Stele and immediately rushed to the center of the Broken Star Cemetery with Ye Chen, where the Emperor of Heaven was.
